A few days ago I got an email alert from Classroom 2.0 ning: I need 
help!  Te teacher was creating a unit for her classroom as an activity 
in her own grad level class. The unit was for US History about the Civil 
War. She wants her students to study the causes of the war. She needed 
an Internet activity.

I suggested she locate an expert on the issues, and invite him/her to 
interact with her students via Skype. I suggested there were such 
experts on this mailing list, but I didn't know here who would like to 
be the "expert from afar". I suggested she contact Greg Kimball.

The teacher just wrote back, and got me to thinking.

Greg, will it be possible  for you to help one such teacher? for a few 
such teacher? an unlimited number of such teachers?

Can any on the list suggest how to handle the logistics of getting a 
history expert available to K-12 classes?
